macayu17 54894b6d96 pyenv-binary: add experimental plugin skeleton 
Adds a new plugin, decoupled from `pyenv install`, for packaging and installing
relocatable Python binaries. This commit is just the command dispatcher; the
individual subcommands follow.

`pyenv binary <command>` dispatches to the matching script under the plugin's
libexec, so subcommands stay out of the top-level `pyenv commands` list.

Groundwork for the binary distribution support discussed in #2334.

pyenv-binary (experimental)

Package an installed Python version into a relocatable archive that can be installed on another machine.

This is experimental and intentionally decoupled: it does not change pyenv install or any other command. You drive it explicitly through pyenv binary. Run pyenv binary <command> --help for details on a command.

Portability

An archive is portable across machines that share its build platform (OS, architecture and a compatible libc) and have the recorded system libraries. It is not portable across, say, glibc and musl, or to an older glibc; the platform and dependency metadata exist to catch that.
